great FML misterious oil

well i check for leaks almost every morning, yesterday i had nothing.... today after doing some fine tuning while i was turbo timing i did a walk around and noticed that i had s decent sized wet spot on my oil pan toward the oil filter side, its felt like oil, then on the splash gaurd on passengerside i see some wet spots as if the oil sqirted on there.... some residue on lower intercooler pipes too....
i wipede off everything and decided to go floor the car i went into boost like 4 times and i have not had the oil show again....i will check tomorrow when its not wet and dark...

who wants to guess the problem =]

My guess useless thread lol. Bro why did you make a thread about that lol. Either way check you oil filter mak sur it's tight and check oil drain line or intercooler piping hot side.

If you sell your car to somewhere like automax im sure theyll do a compression check right? Or even better - theyd prolly do a leakdown test.
